If you hit the “contact us” section of dealer sites I’d reach out to them that way and include a link to Toyota’s site about the car.

In December I made a generic copy paste script in the contact us. 2 min later call back. Explained with persistence. That is what helped start the convo vs calling and explaining. They can digest it for a little bit.

Just talked with another dealer who stated that they were told the US is getting 1000 for the first year. Gonna be a fun time finding one if that’s true.

I suggest we all Thunderdome this thing

Confirming some obvious Socal dealers with markups:

Ventura Toyota
DCH Toyota of Oxnard
Thousand Oaks Toyota
Simi Valley Toyota
Culver City Toyota
Hamer Toyota in Mission Hills
Northridge Toyota
Keyes Toyota in Van Nuys
North Hollywood Toyota
Toyota of Hollywood
Frontier Toyota of Valencia
Toyota of Downtown LA
Toyota of Glendora

The best option seems to be Longo Toyota and be put on their waitlist and ask every few days about adding a deposit...

Uh, why are all these on the list if they are mark up dealers?

He did not confirmed it. He/she stated "obvious"

Good catch. I must've misread that on my first go through. Fixed OP.

That's true, but the list is meant for confirmed MSRP only dealers, not maybe had markup dealers. I updated it.

Awesome thanks. Yeah I only noticed because I called Toyota of Downtown LA and they told me they were marking up all their cars.

Thanks for keeping the list up to date!

Thanks for keeping the list up to date!

We're all just fans here, trying to get cars at a reasonable price. Happy to help with that.

I just got an Email back from Marysville Toyota in Washington:

We as a dealership NEVER mark up our new inventory. We always have and always will sell at or below MSRP. Ownership here at Marysville Toyota is strong on that.

I am also 2nd on the list with White as my primary color, with 8 people total. I was told 1st initially by the internet team, so a little disappointed, but overall they have been a pleasure to work with.

Nice! It's still been a bit of a struggle as far as waitlists go out here in the barren wasteland (a.k.a. Nebraska), so definitely don't take it for granted!

Stealers will always punt you down the list if a salesperson, GM, friend of the dealership, whatever, wants one.

Yep, that was my first though too, haha. Oh well. Bring on Thursday.

Yea, I email blasted a couple of new car sales managers in the GTA area...large volume dealers. Got 1 reply back from a "regular" sales associate and made a deposit..2nd in line. Just a CC receipt and email confirmation. Let's see

 

[TigerEyeJazz]

Can confirm I just got off the phone with Toyota of Kendall and West Kendall Toyota in South Florida that are doing ADM so that’s another one to the list.

Edit: Headquarters Toyota, South Dade Toyota and Doral Toyota all ADM. looks like South Florida will have ADM’s.

 

[JTBros]

Just got off the phone with Younger Toyota in MD about a TRD Pro they had on their site. Sounds like locals don’t have to pay ADM but those out of area do.

 

[david.a.skelton93]

Called 3 Metro Detroit Michigan dealers and they all have a waitlist open: Fox Toyota, Suburban Toyota of Troy, Suburban Toyota of Farmington Hills. Only one is requiring a deposit (Farmington Hills) currently. They wouldn't promise MSRP, but they said that it might be possible. I am second in line with a deposit down at Suburban of Farmington Hills! Let's goooooo!

Add A1 Toyota from New Haven CT!

I'm a salesman there, so if anyone wants a Corolla hit me up
We actually sell all of our cars at MSRP. So I get a lot of East Coast customers for rav4 primes and whatever other Toyota usually gets marked up. I'm the main face in my dealership when it comes to selling our sports cars tho 😂.

If you guys need proof let me know

Just got email confirmation from Fred Haas Toyota World in Houston, TX that they will not be adding any "market adjustment" to the GRC. The deposit was $500 non refundable, must take delivery within 3 days of arrival.

Anyone talk to dealerships in Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico and Oklahoma? I’ve called around but only a small handful have put me on a “list” rest have little to no idea what I’m talking about.
